Beach Vintage vs The Cupcake

my decorated dozen - not bad for my first go

you can play with all the colours you want...and then lick the bowl

Sharnel teaching us her secrets

Last Friday was a great day. I attended my first cupcake course hosted by the beautiful Sharnel from The Cupcake Company (they make the best cupcakes ever) . If you have not done this and you live in Brisbane you must certainly book in! I had the best time. For 3 hours we were shown all the secrets to make your cupcakes look amazing. There was lot's of taste testing along the way too. The best bit? You get to take your self decorated, one dozen cupcakes home! I am telling you there is nothing better.Beware: By the time I got home there were not to many left to share. Is driving and stuffing your mouth with cakes a criminal offence?

Such pretty cupcakes! This is my biggest weakness in life. Cupcakes. I can eat a whole batch on my own. I then want to barf, but will gladly eat another batch the next day without hesitation! Looks like a fun class - how can it not be!!!

Very impressive. This would be a fun way to spend some time with some friends. I think not eating them would be a crime although maybe stuffing your mouth while not driving would have been more enjoyable.

That must have been such a fun class to be a part of... and all that yummy taste testing. Your dozen cupcakes look so prettily decorated. Love that turquoise coloured icing! Enjoy your start to the week Simone x

That last sentence of yours did make me laugh!Your class sounds fabulous....I am doing a cupcake decorating class just the week after next,I can't wait :) Luckily mine is just across the road from me so I can eat all the way home!

Thanks for your little note on my blog, so nice of you to wonder about me....we went to Italy at the end of October and I feel like I haven't stopped running since I came back, I just can't keep up with my blogs.

But I have had a very productive week-end and hopefully normal service will now be resumed.

Oh so fun and so pretty. lovely cupcakes.By the way, I wanted you to know how much I appreciate your comments.You always leave a comment via my comment, sure wish we were neighbors. Thank you, from your friend down Texas way.

Simone, your cupcakes look wonderful! So cute and sweet. I love that you couldn't resist trying some on the way home. I can never resist cupcakes myself. I always tell myself because it's just a cupcake, it can't have anywhere near the calories of a regular piece of cake. LOL.

Simone - these are gorgeous! I made a batch of red velvet cupcakes on the weekend but unfortunately they didn't turn out pretty like yours:( We have a similiar company here in HK - you have inspired me to take a class. Hope you have a fabulous week! BTW - how is the little birdie? xx

Pretty! Really works of art!I love all the colors too!I may give it a whirl with Christmas colors in a few weeks.And then it won't be too long before Spring and Easter! (Not that I need an excuse to eat cupcakes! And those colors are so pretty, I may have to make a batch of pretties for Thanksgiving here on Thursday!)All the best to you,Eileen
